Your favorite radio station broadcasts at a frequency of 91.5 MHz with a power of 11.5 kW. How many photons does the antenna of the station emit in each second?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Number of photons emit per second = 1.9 × 10²⁹  (Approx)

Explanation:

Given:

Frequency = 91.5 MHz

Power = 11.5 Kw = 11,500 J/s

Find:

Number of photons emit per second

Computation:

Total energy with frequency (E) = hf

Total energy with frequency (E) = 6.626×10⁻³⁴  × 91.5×10⁶

Total energy with frequency (E) = 6.06×10⁻²⁶ J

Number of photons emit per second = 11,500 / 6.06×10⁻²⁶

Number of photons emit per second = 1897.689 × 10²⁶

Number of photons emit per second = 1.9 × 10²⁹  (Approx)

A lab technician uses laser light with a wavelength of 650 nmnm to test a diffraction grating. When the grating is 42.0 cmcm from the screen, the first-order maxima appear 6.09 cmcm from the center of the pattern. How many lines per millimeter does this grating have?

Answers

Answer:

221 lines per millimetre

Explanation:

We know that for a diffraction grating, dsinθ =mλ where d = spacing between grating, θ = angle to maximum, m = order of maximum and λ = wavelength of light.

Since the grating is 42.0 cm from the screen and its first order maximum (m = 1) is at 6.09 cm from the center of the pattern,

tanθ = 6.09 cm/42.0 cm = 0.145

From trig ratios, cot²θ + 1 = cosec²θ

cosecθ = √((1/tanθ)² + 1) = √((1/0.145)² + 1) = √48.562 = 6.969

sinθ = 1/cosecθ = 1/6.969 = 0.1435

Also, sinθ = mλ/d at the first-order maximum, m = 1. So

sinθ = (1)λ/d = λ/d

Equating both expressions we have  

0.1435 = λ/d

d = λ/0.1435

Now, λ = 650 nm = 650 × 10⁻⁹ m

d = 650 × 10⁻⁹ m/0.1435

d = 4529.62 × 10⁻⁹ m per line

d = 4.52962 × 10⁻⁶ m per line

d = 0.00452962 × 10⁻³ m per line

d = 0.00452962 mm per line

Since d = width of grating/number of lines of grating

Then number of lines per millimetre = 1/grating spacing

= 1/0.00452962

= 220.77 lines per millimetre

≅ 221 lines per millimetre since we can only have a whole number of lines.

A man using a 70kg garden roller on a level surface, exerts a force of 200N at 45 degrees to the ground. find the vertical force of the roller on the ground if,
i.he pulls
ii.he pushes the roller​

Answers

Answer:

i) 545.2 N  upwards

ii) 828.2 N  downwards

Explanation:

mass of the roller = 70 kg

force exerted = 200 N

angle the force makes with the ground ∅ = 45°

weight of the roller W = mg

where

m is the mass of the roller

g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s^2

weight of the roller = 70 x 9.81 = 686.7 N

The effective vertical force exerted by the man = F sin ∅ = 200 x sin 45°

==> F = 200 x 0.707 = 141.5 N

i) if the man pulls, then the exerted force will be in opposite direction to the weight of the roller vertically upwards

Resultant vertical force = 686.7 N - 141.5 N = 545.2 N  upwards

ii) if he pushes, then the exerted force will be in the direction of the weight vertically downwards

Resultant vertical force = 686.7 N + 141.5 N = 828.2 N  downwards

a. I've attached a plot of the surface. Each face is parameterized by

Answers

Answer:

a barometer is used to measure atmospheric pressure, and a manometer is used to measure gauge pressure.

Explanation:

A barometer measures air pressure at any locality with sea level as the reference.

However, a manometer is used to measure all pressures especially gauge pressures. Thus, if the aim is to measure the pressure at any point below a fluid surface, a barometer is used to determine the air pressure. The manometer may now be used to determine the gauge pressure

The algebraic sum of these two values gives the absolute pressure.

Answer:

v_{f} = 74 m/s, F = 230 N

Explanation:

We can work on this exercise using the relationship between momentum and moment

        I = ∫ F dt = Δp

bold indicates vectors

we can write this equations in its components

X axis

       Fₓ t = m ( -v_{xo})

Y axis  

        t = m (v_{yf} - v_{yo})

in this case with the ball it travels horizontally v_{yo} = 0

Let's use trigonometry to write the final velocities and the force

        sin 30 = v_{yf} / vf

        cos 30 = v_{xf} / vf

        v_{yf} = vf sin 30

        v_{xf} = vf cos 30

         sin40 = F_{y} / F

         F_{y} = F sin 40

         cos 40 = Fₓ / F

         Fₓ = F cos 40

let's substitute

      F cos 40 t = m ( cos 30 - vₓ₀)

      F sin 40 t = m (v_{f} sin 30-0)

we have two equations and two unknowns, so the system can be solved

        F cos 40 0.1 = 0.4 (v_{f} cos 30 - 20)

        F sin 40 0.1 = 0.4 v_{f} sin 30

we clear fen the second equation and subtitles in the first

         F = 4 sin30 /sin40     v_{f}

         F = 3.111 v_{f}

        (3,111 v_{f}) cos 40 = 4 v_{f} cos 30 - 80

        v_{f} (3,111 cos 40 -4 cos30) = - 80

        v_{f} (- 1.0812) = - 80

        v_{f} = 73.99

        v_{f} = 74 m/s

now we can calculate the force

          F = 3.111 73.99

          F = 230 N

A. 115m.
B. 125m.
C. 135m.
D. 145m
E. 155m.

Answers

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial speed of the rock, u = 30 m/s

The acceleration due to gravity at the surface of the moon is 1.62 m/s².

We need to find the time when the rock is ascending at a height of 180 m.

The rock is projected from the surface of the moon. The equation of motion in this case is given by :

[tex]h=ut-\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2\\\\180=30t-\dfrac{1}{2}\times 1.62t^2[/tex]

It is a quadratic equation, after solving whose solution is given by:

t = 7.53 s

or

t = 8 seconds

(e)If it is decending, v = -20 m/s

Now t' is the time of descending. So,

[tex]v=-u+gt\\\\t=\dfrac{v+u}{g}\\\\t=\dfrac{20+30}{1.62}\\\\t=30.86\ s[/tex]

Let h' is the height of the rock at this time. So,

[tex]h'=ut-\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2\\\\h'=30\times 30.86-\dfrac{1}{2}\times 1.62\times 30.86^2\\\\h'=154.40\ m[/tex]

or

h' = 155 m

What is the frequency the horns emit?

Answers

Answer: f ≈ 8.5Hz

Explanation: The phenomenon known as Doppler Shift is characterized as a change in frequency when one observer is stationary and the source emitting the frequency is moving or when both observer and source are moving.

For a source moving and a stationary observer, to determine the frequency:

[tex]f_{0} = f_{s}.\frac{c}{c-v_{s}}[/tex]

where:

[tex]f_{0}[/tex] is frequency of observer;

[tex]f_{s}[/tex] is frequency of source;

c is the constant speed of sound c = 340m/s;

[tex]v_{s}[/tex] is velocity of source;

Rearraging for frequency of source:

[tex]f_{0} = f_{s}.\frac{c}{c-v_{s}}[/tex]

[tex]f_{s} = f_{0}.\frac{c-v_{s}}{c}[/tex]

Replacing and calculating:

[tex]f_{s} = 9.(\frac{340-20}{340})[/tex]

[tex]f_{s} = 9.(0.9412)[/tex]

[tex]f_{s} =[/tex] 8.5

Frequency the horns emit is 8.5Hz.

The momentum of an electron is 1.75 times larger than the value computed non-relativistically. What is the speed of the electron

Answers

Answer:

Speed of the electron is 2.46 x 10^8 m/s

Explanation:

momentum of the electron before relativistic effect = [tex]M_{0} V[/tex]

where [tex]M_{0}[/tex] is the rest mass of the electron

V is the velocity of the electron.

under relativistic effect, the mass increases.

under relativistic effect, the new mass M will be

M = [tex]M_{0}/ \sqrt{1 - \beta ^{2} }[/tex]

where

[tex]\beta = V/c[/tex]

c  is the speed of light = 3 x 10^8 m/s

V is the speed with which the electron travels.

The new momentum will therefore be

==> [tex]M_{0}V/ \sqrt{1 - \beta ^{2} }[/tex]

It is stated that the relativistic momentum is 1.75 times the non-relativistic momentum. Equating, we have

1.75[tex]M_{0} V[/tex] = [tex]M_{0}V/ \sqrt{1 - \beta ^{2} }[/tex]

the equation reduces to

1.75 = [tex]1/ \sqrt{1 - \beta ^{2} }[/tex]

square both sides of the equation, we have

3.0625 = 1/[tex](1 - \beta ^{2} )[/tex]

3.0625 - 3.0625[tex]\beta ^{2}[/tex] = 1

2.0625 = 3.0625[tex]\beta ^{2}[/tex]

[tex]\beta ^{2}[/tex] = 0.67

β = 0.819

substitute for  [tex]\beta = V/c[/tex]

V/c = 0.819

V = c x 0.819

V = 3 x 10^8 x 0.819 = 2.46 x 10^8 m/s

Give an example of a fad diet that is not healthy and one that is healthy. Explain how you know the difference.

Answers

Answer:

 Good Diet: ! gallon of water a day, Fruits, Vegetables, White meats(Chicken), Don't eat past 3 PM.

Bad Diet: Pizza, Red meat, Baked goods, Eating at late hours.

Explanation: I know the difference because, When you drink water first thing in the morning it gets your metabolism running. Than means you can digest foods better, you want to feed your body good foods but you should not eat until you feel stuffed. You should eat until you are no longer starving. Than you should drink a cup of water in between meals. I know you should not eat past 3 pm because your body needs time to digest foods because you should never go to sleep with a full stomach. I know the difference between good food and bad food because when you eat healthy food and a balanced diet, your body will have more energy and you wont feel tired afterwards. Eating bad foods and food with artificial sugars will clump up in your kidneys, and your body will have small bursts of energy but you will feel lazy afterwards...Your body is supposed to stay energized from a healthy meal in order to give you the energy your body needs to exercise. If you feel droopy all the time and you don't want to do anything, than you are unhealthy.

Answer:

A vegetarian diet is an example of a good fad diet if you do it correctly. It can help you get lots of veggies and good nutrients from them while still following the non-meat diet you want. This can be effective and good for weight loss becasue you are still eating and getting all the good nutrients and calories from less fatty foods. 

Vegan diet (some can be successful but many people fail and do not do good that is why I choose this) The problem with this fad diet is that it can cause nutritional deficiencies and lead to a host of additional health problems, including negatively impacting hormonal health and metabolism. Many people also struggle to find healthy vegan food and end up eating bad and fatty foods instead.

Problem 25.40 What is the energy (in eV) of a photon of visible light that has a wavelength of 500 nm

Answers

Answer:

E = 2.48 eV

Explanation:

The energy of a photon is given by the following formula:

E = hυ

where,

E = Energy of Photon = ?

h = Plank's Constant = 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J.s

υ = frequency of photon = c/λ

Therefore,

E = hc/λ

where,

c = speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

λ = wavelength of light = 500 nm = 5 x 10⁻⁷ m

Therefore,

E = (6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J.s)(3 x 10⁸ m/s)/(5 x 10⁻⁷ m)

E = (3.97 x 10⁻¹⁹ J)(1 eV/1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ J)

E = 2.48 eV

A photon of visible light that has a wavelength of 500 nm, has an energy of 2.48 eV.

We can calculate the energy (E) of a photon with a wavelength (λ) of 500 nm using the Planck's-Einstein relation.

[tex]E = \frac{h \times c}{\lambda } = \frac{(6.63 \times 10^{-34}J.s ) \times (3.00 \times 10^{8}m/s )}{500 \times 10^{-9}m } = 3.98 \times 10^{-19} J[/tex]

where,

h: Planck's constantc: speed of light

We can convert 3.98 × 10⁻¹⁹ J to eV using the conversion factor 1 J = 6.24 × 10¹⁸ eV.

[tex]3.98 \times 10^{-19} J \times \frac{6.24 \times 10^{18} eV }{1J} = 2.48 eV[/tex]

A photon of visible light that has a wavelength of 500 nm, has an energy of 2.48 eV.

Which best identifies the requirements for work to be performed? an object that has a force acting on it an object that is moving and has no net force a force acting on a motionless object a force that moves an object

Answers

Answer:

a force that moves an object

Explanation:

the formula for work is force * distance

This question involves the concepts of work, force, and displacement.

The statement that best identifies the requirements for work to be performed is "a force that moves an object".

Work is defined as the product of force applied on an object and the distance moved by the object. Mathematically,

Work = (Force)(Displacement)

Hence, both the applied force and the displacement of the object as a result of the application of the force is necessary for the work to be done. If any one of these values becomes zero, the work automatically becomes zero, which means no work is performed.

A bar magnet is dropped from above and falls through the loop of wire. The north pole of the bar magnet points downward towards the page as it falls. Which statement is correct?a. The current in the loop always flows in a clockwise direction. b·The current in the loop always flows in a counterclockwise direction. c. The current in the loop flows first in a clockwise, then in a counterclockwise direction. d. The current in the loop flows first in a counterclockwise, then in a clockwise direction. e. No current flows in the loop because both ends of the magnet move through the loop.

Answers

Answer:

b. The current in the loop always flows in a counterclockwise direction.

Explanation:

When a magnet falls through a loop of wire, it induces an induced current on the loop of wire. This induced current is due to the motion of the magnet through the loop, which cause a change in the flux linkage of the magnet. According to Lenz law, the induced current acts in such a way as to repel the force or action that produces it. For this magnet, the only opposition possible is to stop its fall by inducing a like pole on the wire loop to repel its motion down. An induced current that flows counterclockwise in the wire loop has a polarity that is equivalent to a north pole on a magnet, and this will try to repel the motion of the magnet through the coil. Also, when the magnet goes pass the wire loop, this induced north pole will try to attract the south end of the magnet, all in a bid to stop its motion downwards.

The current in the loop always flows in a counterclockwise direction. Hence, option (b) is correct.

The given problem is based on the concept and fundamentals of magnetic bars. When a magnet falls through a loop of wire, it induces an induced current on the loop of wire. There is some magnitude of current induced in the wire.

This induced current is due to the motion of the magnet through the loop, which cause a change in the flux linkage of the magnet. According to Lenz law, the induced current acts in such a way as to repel the force or action that produces it. For this magnet, the only opposition possible is to stop its fall by inducing a like pole on the wire loop to repel its motion down. An induced current that flows counterclockwise in the wire loop has a polarity that is equivalent to a north pole on a magnet, and this will try to repel the motion of the magnet through the coil. Also, when the magnet goes pass the wire loop, this induced north pole will try to attract the south end of the magnet, all in a bid to stop its motion downwards.

Thus, we can say that the current in the loop always flows in a counterclockwise direction. Hence, option (b) is correct.

What is the reason for the increase and decrease size of the moon and write down in a paragraph.

Answers

Answer:

The reason for the increase or decrease of the moon is due to the angular perception of the moon.

Explanation:

Also called lunar illusion, this phenomenon is due to the position in which the moon is, it can be at the zenith or on the horizon, both distances are different from each other with respect to the position of the person.

The zenith is the highest part of the sky and the horizon the lowest.

When there are landmarks such as trees, buildings or mountains on the horizon, the illusion of closeness is given and the illusion of distance is misinterpreted.

But when looking up at the sky as there is no reference point there will be a failure in the perception of size.

In a physics laboratory experiment, a coil with 250 turns enclosing an area of 14 cm2 is rotated in a time interval of 0.030 s from a position where its plane is perpendicular to the earth's magnetic field to a position where its plane is parallel to the field. The earth's magnetic field at the lab location is 5.0×10^−5 T.Required:a. What is the total magnetic flux through the coil before it is rotated? After it is rotated? b. What is the average emf induced in the coil?

Answers

Explanation:

Consider a loop of wire, which has an area of [tex]A=14 \mathrm{cm}^{2}[/tex] and [tex]N=250[/tex] turns, it is initially placed perpendicularly in the earth magnetic field. Then it is rotated from this position to a position where its plane is parallel to the field as shown in the following figure in [tex]\Delta t=0.030[/tex] s. Given that the earth's magnetic field at the position of the loop is [tex]B=5.0 \times 10^{-5} \mathrm{T}[/tex], the flux through the loop before it is rotated is,

[tex]\Phi_{B, i} &=B A \cos \left(\phi_{i}\right)=B A \cos \left(0^{\circ}\right[/tex]

[tex]=\left(5.0 \times 10^{-5} \mathrm{T}\right)\left(14 \times 10^{-4} \mathrm{m}^{2}\right)(1)[/tex]

[tex]=7.0 \times 10^{-8} \mathrm{Wb}[/tex]

[tex]\quad\left[\Phi_{B, i}=7.0 \times 10^{-8} \mathrm{Wb}\right[/tex]

after it is rotated, the angle between the area and the magnetic field is [tex]\phi=90^{\circ}[/tex] thus,

[tex]\Phi_{B, f}=B A \cos \left(\phi_{f}\right)=B A \cos \left(90^{\circ}\right)=0[/tex]

[tex]\qquad \Phi_{B, f}=0[/tex]

(b) The average magnitude of the emf induced in the coil equals the change in the flux divided by the time of this change, and multiplied by the number of turns, that is,

[tex]{\left|\mathcal{E}_{\mathrm{av}}\right|=N\left|\frac{\Phi_{B, f}-\Phi_{B, i}}{\Delta t}\right|}{=} & \frac{1.40 \times 10^{-5} \mathrm{Wb}}{0.030 \mathrm{s}}[/tex]

[tex]& 3.6 \times 10^{-4} \mathrm{V}=0.36 \mathrm{mV}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbb{E}=0.36 \mathrm{mV}[/tex]

(a) The initial and final flux through the coil is 1.75 × 10⁻⁵ Wb and 0 Wb

(b) The induced EMF in the coil is 0.583 mV

Flux and induced EMF:

Given that the coil has N = 250 turns

and an area of A = 14cm² = 1.4×10⁻³m².

It is rotated for a time period of Δt = 0.030s such that it is parallel with the earth's magnetic field that is B = 5×10⁻⁵T

(a) The flux passing through the coil is given by:

Ф = NBAcosθ

where θ is the angle between area vector and the magnetic field

The area vector is perpendicular to the plane of the coil.

So, initially, θ = 0°, as area vector and earth's magnetic field both are perpendicular to the plane of the coil

So the initial flux is:

Φ = NABcos0° = NAB

Ф = 250×1.4×10⁻³×5×10⁻⁵ Wb

Ф = 1.75 × 10⁻⁵ Wb

Finally, θ = 90°, and since cos90°, the final flux through the coil is 0

(b) The EMF induced is given by:

E = -ΔФ/Δt

E = -(0 - 1.75 × 10⁻⁵)/0.030

E = 0.583 × 10⁻³ V

E = 0.583 mV

What is the power P of the eye when viewing an object 61.0 cm away? Assume the lens-to-retina distance is 2.00 cm , and express the answer in diopters.

Answers

Answer:

The power of the eye is 51.64 diopters

Explanation:

The power of the eye is given by;

[tex]P = \frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{d_o} +\frac{1}{d_i}[/tex]

where;

P is the power of the eye in diopter

f is the focal length of the eye

[tex]d_o[/tex] is the distance between the eye and the object

[tex]d_i[/tex] is the distance between the eye and the image

Given;

[tex]d_o[/tex] = 61.0 cm = 0.61 m

[tex]d_i[/tex] = 2.0 cm = 0.02 m

[tex]P = \frac{1}{d_o} +\frac{1}{d_i} \\\\P = \frac{1}{0.61} + \frac{1}{0.02} \\\\P = 51.64 \ D[/tex]

Therefore, the power of the eye is 51.64 diopters.

The power P of the eye when viewing an object 61.0 cm away is 51.639D

The power of a lens is a reciprocal of its focal length and it is expressed as:

[tex]P=\frac{1}{f}[/tex]

According to the mirror formula

[tex]\frac{1}{f} =\frac{1}{d_i} +\frac{1}{d_0}[/tex]

where

[tex]d_i[/tex] is the distance from the lens to the image = 61.0cm = 0.61m

[tex]d_0[/tex] is the distance from the lens to the object = 2.00cm = 0.02m

[tex]P=\frac{1}{f} =\frac{1}{0.02} +\frac{1}{0.61}\\P=50+1.639\\P=51.639D[/tex]

Hence the power P of the eye when viewing an object 61.0 cm away is 51.639D
